Happy ending

[Sir barnaby]

Hi all I sent a message about my mare having her first foal last Tuesday, 1st picture, however due to circumstances beyond our control the foal didn’t survive and when they were taken into the vets it was because he couldn’t absorb any food through the digestion system, anyway we put a message out for a foster foal and found one in Devon, we are in Lincolnshire, so the mare was transported down a very long journey to Devon where she was introduced to her new baby they bonded fairly quickly and I received a new picture today.

I hope that's a consolation for your sad loss. A friend of mine fostered when she lost one and it helped her a lot.

Lovely, out of so much sadness comes happiness.

 

[PapaverFollis]

Awww, I'm so sorry you lost your foal but so glad your mare has been able to help someone else. ❤

So sorry you lost your foal, bloody heartbreaking. But v glad your mare is already doing well with foster foal xx

 

[Dave's Mam]

Oh I am so glad to read this. I read about that foal on FB & so happy he has a new Mam.

So sorry you lost your foal, you must be devastated. but so lovely that your mare can help another new life. Very kind thing to let her go down there and be a foster mum.

 

[Abby-Lou]

Thank you for reaching out and helping someone else in this difficult time, it takes a special person to entrust your mare to someone else.

 

[TPO]

Oh no, I am so sorry for your loss. How heartbreaking.

I'm glad that your mare has been able to step into the foster mum role and is happily helping another foal.

 

[Tiddlypom]

So sorry to hear about the loss of your foal, but well done for making the difficult decision to send your mare so far away to foster an orphan foal. So pleased to hear that the fostering has gone well.

I'm so sorry your wee one didn't make it.
Must have been difficult letting your mare travel so far at such a sad time.

What beautiful pictures. Your mare looks so to have such a kind face with both her own foal and the foster foal. I'm sure the foals owners are grateful for your generosity. I hope they progress well and your girl thrives. You must be missing her as I'm sure you had such plans for your own little one.

I’m so sorry about your foal - I had no idea that you had lost him. Having bred my own, I would be absolutely devastated if I lost one. I’m so glad that your mare has taken to the foster foal and will keep my fingers crossed that everything continues to go well.

 

[Britestar]

Sorry you lost your lovely baby, and so nice that she's has a new baby to look after.

 

[LadyGascoyne]

I saw the other side of this story on Facebook- the poor breeder who lost their lovely mare and was so desperate to find a mare to foster the foal.

I am so sorry for your loss but you have done something fantastic here. They look beautiful together.

 

[J&S]

A delightful photo of the new pair. A happy ending to two very sad events. Wishing every one well.

I'd no idea you'd lost your beautiful foal - that's really sad. Lovely that your mare can help another baby. My horse was hand reared after losing her dam and i think she missed out on so much not having her mother xx

Sorry for the loss of your foal but also well done on giving another foal a chance at having a new mum whilst giving your mare a new baby to cherish.
